No idea about setting the flags, but do you mean -mx32 (an obscure
variant, ISTR intel came up with it for possible telecomms
equipment) or -m32 (regular i686) ?  If you do mean -mx32, and can
set the flags, you probably want to look at gentoo: from memory one
of their devs was keen on -mx32, but when I last looked (many years
ago) it needed a lot of patching.
